WBA S2 - Ep.2 - Speeches

Dreaded by some, relished by most! Speeches at weddings come with quite a 'Marmite' reputation.

Not everyone is up for such a personal challenge but you have been asked for a reason so make the most of it! Thanks to Theresa for such a lovely chat! https://www.ribeiroceremonies.com/

WBA S2 - Ep.1 - Explain Agencies

Series 2 lands with a bang! (Or perhaps a clash of a symbol would be better for the topic!?) Annabel is joined by music pro Nick Merchant, from Merchant Music, to talk about what a Music Agency does. Discussions include what an agency actually does, what are the benefits and how it works for a wedding. The dreaded risk factors of venues and their limitations are covered too... Do you know what questions you need to ask your venue on behalf of the musicians?! Do you know what can happen if you breach their rules?!  Nick represents a host of handpicked artists from many difference genres. He can tailor the acts to suit taste, atmosphere and budget and even include someone to ensure smooth set up, handovers and de-rigg.  This friendly chat between friends gives you an insight into what can be a misunderstood or unknown service for a wonderful celebration.
